This book explores emergent forms of governance in mining and extractive industry projects around the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapters examine efforts to govern extractive activities across multiple political scales, through intermediaries, instruments, technologies, discourses, and infrastructures. The contributions analyse how multiple micro-processes of rule reverberate through societies to shape the material conditions of everyday life but also politics, social relations, and subjectivities in extractive economies. Detailed case studies are included from Africa (Chad, Nigeria, Rwanda, and São Tomé and Príncipe), Latin America (Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru), and the UN Climate Conference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lori Leonard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415786886\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415786881\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/04\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 234\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Lori Leonard","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086654288127,"sku":"9780415786881","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5b3cbebb-7f23-4555-b880-79500c3fe802.jpg?v=1769095839","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/governance-in-the-extractive-industries-lori-leonard-9780415786881","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
